On today's episode of Ask The Doctor, Vikram Chandra talks to Prabhat Jha, Professor of Global Health, University of Toronto, Scientist, Unity Health Toronto, who explains why without accurate data mapping the Covid curve is difficult. He says it is crucial to have not just test data, but also mortality & hospitalisation data. He suggests all municipal bodies to release total death counts, not just covid deaths, that will give us a better sense of the direction the pandemic is taking.
